Can we become friends? watercolour on paper 20x29cm

0 comments Posted by Trine at 6:40 pm

Every day in the news we see people fighting and killing their former neighbors in civil wars around the globe. Some people think it is natural that people from different etnical, political or religious backgrounds should fight each other.
 
Fortunately there is also wonderful change to the better in the news. Yesterday during the big Europride parade in Oslo, the capital of Norway, a large group of police joined the parade, not only to support any LGBT police officers but also as a way of symbolizing the massive change from only a few decades ago when they were criminalized and hunted by the police. Being gay was sometimes like a cat and mouse game with the police. Now the police states they are the protectors.   http://www.europride2014.com/?lang=nb/ 
 
Today's painting expresses my hope that even relationsships that look impossible can sometimes be possible.

18.1.2013 The Difficulty of Non Mainstream Love - watercolor on paper A4

1 comments Posted by Trine at 10:35 pm

Yesterday I explored the situation of being alone when everybody around seems to be part of couples. Today my focus withine the love theme is what I have chosen to call non mainstream love. People belonging to the LGBT community struggle a lot in many cultures or groups and may not be able to fully and openly enjoy celebrations of love like Valentine's Day with their chosen one. Their love might even be taby or even illegal. This is the basis for today's painting.

I dag har jeg tatt utgangspunkt i tanken om at mennesker som tilhører LHBTgruppen i mange kulturer og grupper ikke kan være deltakere i hovedsamfunnets gassing i kort og symboler knyttet til den store feiringen av kjærlighet på Valentine's Day. Kanskje er deres kjærlighet til og med tabu eller forbudt
